Amazon today is very different from what it was 10 years ago. In 2001, Amazon was still pretty much an online bookstore. Today not only does it sell almost everything under the sun, but it's also a huge cloud computing company, a media seller and it even makes its own gadgets.

What's more, Amazon's Founder and CEO Jeff Bezos is nothing if not a long term thinker. Amazon stayed unprofitable for 8 years, including 5 as a public company, because Bezos understood that he had to reach scale before profitability. Amazon got into cloud cloud computing before almost anyone else because Bezos understood how huge it would be.

It's impossible to think Jeff Bezos doesn't have a clear idea of what Amazon will be like 20 years from now.
